Fundamental to a fairer world
We want to see in a world where no one is left behind. That world can only be built if we have the right foundation: respect for human rights.
We aim to advance and promote respect for human rights in everything we do – within our workplaces, through our supply and distribution chains and through our brands.
Everyone matters: from the smallholder farmers who grow the ingredients for our products, to the ‘mom and pop’ shop owners who sell our brands.
We’re working to help put human rights at the heart of a fairer, more socially inclusive world. You can view our Human Rights Report in the strategy and goals section below.
